Starting at the top: each earring contains princess cut, round, trillion, round, and at the bottom is a pear cut. A collection of different cuts all in one earring. Chrome diopside is a very beautifully saturated green stone mined in the regions of Eastern Siberia. Chrome diopside is a rare gemstone. Currently, gem-quality specimens are only found in one area of the world, and once that supply runs out, they will become even more rare unless another is located. Due to the unforgiving climate of the region, production of chrome diopside can only occur for part of the year. From July to August the weather is mild enough, and the land soft enough, for diggers to excavate the green stone from the bland, cold earth. During the brutally cold winter, the entire area is to cold to mine. Therefore, it is hard to maintain the production levels steady during those seven to eight months. Temperatures have been recorded as low as negative 55.7 degrees below zero. The work is tough and physically intensive. It's rare to find examples over two carats in size. Despite this, it is possible to find gems of up to five carats in size. This gemstone is a worthy alternative to emerald. More affordable and twice the refractive index than emerald. It simply has more sparkle. Finally, it's very rare for chrome diopside to be treated. Its mother nature beautiful. Add these earrings to your collection or give as a gift to that person born in May. New old stock. Bought 'as is' with no tags. They were probably used on air as a sample item. Take advantage of an old price point. Thank you for looking. Last 2 photos for COMPARISON ONLY!
